A Time to Remember


As many of you know, this Monday is Memorial Day. Over the years it has simply become an extra day in your weekend. Just another excuse for department stores to have huge sales and price drops. Very few Americans still treat this day the way it was intended to be: a day to honor our countries veterans. A day to say "thank you for risking your life for my freedom." A day to praise God for the overwhelming grace and mercy shown to our country. It is also a day to remember those who died heroes. Many of those died painful deaths in order to save many lives. This memorial day, make sure you take time to thank God for those who were willing to lay down their lives for the sake of liberty. Without those men, we would live in a much different America. One that had no respect for the word Liberty, a word many soldiers died for.
